The present study explores an innovative approach for the efficient synthesis of 2,4-disubstituted thiazole derivatives, a class of compounds with diverse biological and pharmaceutical significance. This research presents lipase as a highly effective and environmentally friendly catalyst for thiazole synthesis. Under mild circumstances, the condensation of aryl ethenone, KBrO(3), and thioamide is aided by using ultrasonic energy. Moreover, we harness the power of ultrasound irradiation to accelerate the reaction, reducing reaction times and improving product yields. The lipase-catalyzed, ultrasound-assisted synthesis presented in this study represents a greener and more sustainable alternative to traditional synthetic pathways for these important compounds, offering promising potential for applications in medicinal chemistry and drug development. This approach holds the promise of advancing the field of thiazole synthesis, contributing to more sustainable and efficient chemical processes.
